And sorry if I don't know all these good people.

I just opened the machine and there was that awesome band singing "Welcome to the machine" while not missing a note!

I saw PF live for the first time in November 1971 (Meddle) in Quebec City (Laval University), and outdoor in Montreal in July 1975.

I saw PF three times (Syracuse and Montreal in 87') and then the division bell in the early 90's. Wish I could have caught them with Roger.

Well, he's amazing in RL too!

I didn't really like the band after he had his reasons to quit, so I didn't go to these shows.

I saw him with them at that (too short) reunion concert, and also him on tour in 1999.

Wow, Brit Floyd's interpretation of "One Of These Days" is unbelievable!! All Great Memories!

Just got back from watching (re-discovered) 70's footage from the real deal though!

These musicians were still exploring a lot at the time I saw them, a year or so later:

Pink Floyd - Live in Saint Tropez (Rare Full Footage, 1970)



(Atom Heart Mother + earlier pieces)

Edit: Had no idea the link was deactivated on demand (it still works on the u-tube)
